Today the 5th and 6th grade students worked on the toy cars for distribution through our local food bank. Drilling the holes in the wheels is shown at left and a finished car is shown below. Many woodworking clubs are very busy this time of year making toys and hand made things have great appeal. In fact, when all you've seen in the way of toys is the highly finished plastic we've become accustomed to, some real wood is a welcomed treat. Our children find meaning in the opportunity to give back to the community and to those less fortunate. But it is also fun.
